Editorial Reviews:
Review:"While her tone can be frantic, [Roy's] pointed indictment of India's hydroelectric industry...is devastating."
Alex Abramovich, New York Times Book Review, 11/25/2001
Review:"Roy's efforts on behalf of the victims of dam-building show her to be a good citizen; but if her aim, as a writer of political essays, is to promote common understanding, she is less than a success. The essays express her convictions and her prejudices with great passion, but by her own account she aims higher....Roy showed a fondness in her novel for overlush imagery and showy stylistic flourishes. The same thing is true in her essays, where her literary mannerisms often obscure understanding."
Ian Buruma, New Republic, 04/29/2002
